Finding the Path to Excellence
The role of an administrative assistant is, perhaps, one of the most crucial roles in an organization. Why is it, then, that assistants often feel unsupported, ill-equipped, and overlooked? Administrative assistants and support staff face a constant, uphill battle to consistently perform well, match stride with their executives, and keep pace with an ever-evolving workplace. Many in the administrative profession have chosen this career intentionally and want to maximize their role and be an integral team member in their business. They endeavor to best support their leader and executive, but still feel like they’re:
- Struggling to effectively communicate
- Out of alignment on key tasks and goals
- Not providing the level of support of which they are capable
- Failing to understand who the executive is and what their role entails
- Frozen in their career and grappling to find necessary growth and education
- Unable to calm a constant state of chaos
- They know they’re not where they need to be, but they may not know why.
The Solution: The Executive Support Series™
The “why” is actually hidden in plain sight. More often than not, administrative assistants are not provided with the tools, training, and education they need to grow and develop in their role. They are left to figure it out on their own. When they do get resources, they’re often “recycled” versions of manager’s training that fail to consider the specific challenges and obstacles executive assistants face.
Office Dynamics’ Executive Support Series provides the answer. This groundbreaking Series is the proven solution that delivers results. It’s the one-stop-shop resource you’ve been looking for. Our Executive Support Series looks at the whole assistant and delivers the key insights and training you need to advance in your career.

CESP (Certified Executive Strategic Partner)
Executive Support Series™ Certification and Designation
I had been wanting to take a designation test and Office Dynamics offered it at the right time! I enjoyed every bit of the content and even if I am 40 years in the industry, I learned so much more that I can use going forward.
What is the Certified Executive Strategic Partner designation from Office Dynamics?
CESP is a “specialized” designation for administrative professionals that communicates you are a highly trained, highly-skilled, professional who supports executives, key leaders, directors, and the management team.
There are other professional designations for administrative professionals that can be achieved through professional associations. Even at Office Dynamics, we offer two other high-level certifications with designations called the CEAP (Certified Executive Administrative Professional) and CWCA (Certified World Class Assistant).
The significant difference in obtaining the CESP is that the teachings fully and exclusively focus on the competencies, skills, attitudes, and behaviors needed to support someone in leadership whereas other certifications cover a gamut of topics such as business acumen, business law, accounting, administration, technology, records management, and general communications.
When you achieve Office Dynamics’ CESP designation, it will say to a potential employer or current executive that you are fully committed to being the best possible strategic partner. It says that you understand, first and foremost, your purpose is to alleviate your executive of any tasks that are barriers to their success or fulfilling the mission of their work and business; that you “run the ball down the field” next to your executive.
Office Dynamics is the first in the administrative training industry to offer this highly coveted certification and designation.
The CESP designation was created by Joan Burge, Founder and CEO of Office Dynamics International. Joan has a deep understanding of the administrative profession from 20 years’ experience and 30+ years as a CEO and executive. She brought these two perspectives together in 2020 during the pandemic by recording 48 educational videos specific to the topic of supporting an executive and creating strategic partnerships.
Why is it important for an administrative assistant or executive assistant to get this specific designation?
- Create opportunities for yourself in terms of more challenging and interesting work, thus moving away from being an order taker and task doer.
- You will stand out from the crowd. Whereas other assistants might have the broader designations from IAAP (CAP) or from APC (PACE), this designation will alert others that you invested time absorbed in what it takes to be the best of the best.
- Could lead to promotion and salary increase. C-Suite executives and top-level leadership must have the best administrative partner at their side. They must have someone who grows in tandem in their profession just as much as the executive grows in their role. This designation will give you the edge when competing for a high-level position.
- The CESP designation tells others that you see yourself as a Career Executive-Level Assistant whose mission is to strategically support a leader. And that you understand there are 101 nuances to fulfilling this mission.
- Earning a certificate or designation validates the person’s high-level of expertise and often leads to added prestige … not to mention the fact that a professional certification may also yield a pay bump and generally puts holders ahead of the pack.
- Demonstrates commitment to your profession. Receiving a certification and designation shows your peers, leaders, and the general public how committed you are to your chosen career, along with how well you perform to set standards. It sets you apart as a leader in your field.
- Certification builds self-esteem. Certifications create a standard for a particular profession, complete with performance standards, ethics, and career paths. You will see yourself as a certified professional who controls his or her own professional destiny.
- Because you want to learn real-world strategies and tips from Joan Burge, 50-year veteran in the administrative profession, pioneer of the administrative training industry since 1990, and visionary for the future of the role. Joan Burge is the most sought-after expert in the training industry by Fortune 500 companies like Procter & Gamble, Walt Disney World, Nationwide Insurance, Cisco Systems, Boeing, Caterpillar, and Humana.
- Joan will tell you like it is! She cares about you, your well-being, and career success.
How to obtain the Certified Executive Strategic Partner (CESP) designation:
- Register for Office Dynamics’ Executive Support Series™ course.
- Watch all 48 videos within 3 months. (Note: Some videos are shorter than other video segments.)
- As you watch the videos, be sure to absorb what Joan says; take notes; make sure you understand the concepts and strategies.
- Take the test when you feel confident in what you learned. You must get at least 85% of the questions right to receive the CESP designation. You will have three chances to pass the test.
- When you pass the test, you will receive your certificate displaying your designation.
- Proudly display the CESP initials after your name in signature lines, on your LinkedIn profile, on resumes, and anywhere else that is business related.

FAQs
There are no refunds or transfers for the Executive Support Series™
Joan wants to make sure you finish what you started and stay true to your commitment. Joan knows first hand that if access to video webinars or training is belabored, people tend to get distracted with work and life. It is because of this, we have limited viewing access to 3 months. There are 48 videos that total around 10 hours.
If you don’t finish within the 3 months, you may pay $50 for a 30-day, one-time extension.
Joan Burge, Executive Support Series™ Creator, highly recommends you watch the videos in order. She purposely set the order of topics to flow, connect, and build upon each other.
After you have paid and completed your registration, you will receive a welcome email that will contain your login credentials to access the course. You will follow the instructions provided in the email.
*PLEASE NOTE: If you do not receive an email, your company may be blocking it or it may be in your spam folder. Please ask your IT person for assistance in retrieving the email and whitelisting our emails.
Should your organization wish to purchase the Executive Support Series™ for their entire administrative community or a group, we have Enterprise Pricing.
Please call 800-STAR-139 for group pricing and details.
Anyone caught sharing the course or information will be removed with no refunds. And you will not be able to obtain your designation. No exceptions.
You do not have to take the test unless you want to receive your CESP (Certified Executive Support Professional) Designation.
There is no time limit, however, we do recommend you take as soon as possible while the information is fresh.
You will have three chances to pass the test. We highly recommend you take extensive notes and study hard before attempting the test. We also recommend that you take it before your three-month access ends in case you need to refer to any videos. You must receive an 85% or higher to pass and receive your designation. If you do not pass after three attempts or need an extension, please call us at 800-STAR-139 and you may purchase a 30-day, one-time extension.
Once you gain access to the course, you will find testing information on the main page as well as on the page of the last video in this training series. We will also be send a 60 and 90-day follow up email which will contain the information and link.
Upon passing the test with a score of 85% or higher, your certificate will be processed and emailed to you within 72 hours. There may be times where it may take longer.
No, you do not have to get certified in the Executive Support Series course. We highly recommend you strive for the certification and designation, though, since you are investing a great deal of time and money in this course. Plus employers are looking for assistants who have gone the extra mile with their education and have obtained some type of certification. A professional designation may give you the edge.
No. Unlike certifications offered by administrative associations, you do not have to recertify. The Office Dynamics certification is called a “curriculum-based designation.”
P.S. Truly Transformational Education
Without knowledge, we cannot grow. Without ongoing education, our minds languish, and we become more like robots and less like powerful, innovative, creative pioneers. The challenge is always, both personally and professionally, to continue onward – towards growth, change, and wholeness.
I started Office Dynamics because I value the power of education. I knew our industry needed more. For the last thirty years, I’ve been a relentless advocate for administrative assistants. How do I do that? I push the boundaries and always encourage myself and others to reach for the stars.
This Series was born from a need for quicker, easier access to knowledge without compromising one iota of integrity and quality.
I’ll leave you with this final bit of advice. Invest in yourself. I’ve never met a single assistant who regretted seeing themselves as worthy of investment. Quite the opposite, in fact. They often wondered why they waited so long to begin.
Here's What Graduates Say
- The program was more in-depth than anything else I’ve taken through Office Dynamics. There were nuggets of wisdom within every video….nuggets that I felt haven’t been revealed in the webinars or the World Class Assistant, for instance.
- Each of the videos were just the right length – you could do a ½ hour of training here and there throughout the workweek with no issues on it eating up huge chunks of your time.
- I loved that we are forced to take notes – that makes us accountable for the learnings.
- I’m a big fan of Joan’s and have always enjoyed her teaching style. She has a way of captivating her audience and is so authentic and real.
- Your teaching style is what I love most! You are one of us, being on both sides of the desk you get it. You know what we are looking for and you give us just that. You teach in a way that is easily understood and you give us examples.
- The Executive Support Series course was absolutely what I was hoping it would be.
- Not too difficult
- Not too time consuming
- The content and visuals were clean and easy to follow
- The examples and experiences you gave, truly makes you reflect
Joan, your teaching style (for me) is so awesome! I almost have withdrawals of not watching religiously how to be the best Admin.
You have such a warm and engaging style that draws the listener in. You clearly know your material and I’m always excited to learn from someone who is both experienced and can inspire others to learn, as well. I liked that you provided lists, charts, and infographics to reinforce your speaking points.
I absolutely loved the course content and format; your teaching style, visuals, and added resources. I am 40 years in the industry and learned so much more that I can use going forward.
I was the first person to complete this course and obtain the CESP designation. What a powerful and amazing course that Joan Burge and the ODI team put together.
What I love about the Executive Support Series course:
- This course covers everything from how to think like an executive, how to be a strategic business partner and the daily skills top CEOs in the world are looking for. I can’t wait to put the information into practice!
- The content is all-encompassing of Office Dynamics courses, woven together for a complete education on strategic partnerships and interpersonal skills. I created the ultimate desk reference with the notes, worksheets, and workbooks from this course.
This course is like one-on-one mentoring from Joan. Joan gives you her best knowledge and tips and tells of her own experiences.
Your teaching style is authentic and applicable to every level of office worker. The extra resources are great reference tools and provide excellent knowledge.
Thank you for providing professional training videos. I have 36 years of office experience and learn each time you provide training for certification and webinars!
I found the content thoughtfully laid out and comprehensive. Your delivery and teaching style is easy to understand, direct, personable, and enjoyable. Your passion for the profession comes through in every video (and really, everything you do!); your enthusiasm causes the spark in me to catch on fire, burn brighter, and causes me to get excited once again about the future in my career.
I enjoyed being able to take the course at my own pace… watching videos early in the morning while my household was quiet, allowing me to focus; being able to pause as needed to ensure the notes I was capturing were accurately reflecting the lesson. Most of all, it was wonderful not to sit in a classroom as that is not a comfortable learning environment for me.
I felt the information was prepared and shared in easy to digest videos with a nice balance of graphics and valuable downloadable resources, ensuring I have a comprehensive guide to use going forward at my fingertips.
I am stoked about my future! Thank you for creating the series!
